The PUD will receive $379,600 in Public Assistance funding from the Federal Emergency Management Association (FEMA) for recovery from the damage caused by severe winter storms that occurred in December of 2015. PUD Interim General Manager John Nguyen said these funds will help the PUD stay on track with its budgeting.
"While the PUD has funds set aside for emergencies like the December outage, this reimbursement will go a long way toward keeping the
PUD on budget as was planned before the storm," Nguyen said.
